Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.
Rules…
- Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
- Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
- Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
- No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
- New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.

Put it some boring and reliable investment, and just have the interest supplement my income for life.
I'm a little disappointed that I've become so boring, old, and senile in my late youth, but also its good I'm content enough in my place right now to not want to use the money for some major change.
An extra $10-20k per year from interest and a massive emergency fund is plenty thx.
Just realised I never posed a question! What would you do if you were offered a job in Japan?
I read the description as an or rather than a requirement, hence why I didn't ask a question.
I would probably accept that job. I doubt I would have applied otherwise. Been wanting to move to another country. Japan is not where I had in mind, but I'll take it.
Because I'm derivative, what country(ies), that could offer you a well paying job, would you turn down if offered?
Yes it's np. I'd turn any country down it doesn't interest me. I know that's boring!
What would you do if you found a talking dog?
Be shy and say nothing because I assume the talking dog must be annoyed by being asked the same questions over and over again.
I'd much rather be able to talk to birds or rabbits. They're so skittished and fearful I want to be able to assure them I'm not dangerous in a way they can understand.
What would you do if you met yourself from a parallel universe?
Hang out and have a blast!
What would you do if Henry Cavill asked you out?
Discretely reach into my pocket to hold my pepper spray in case its needed. I'm both married, and a lesbian. If he asked me out despite the fact I'm clearly neither interested nor available, I'm concerned he won't take rejection calmly.
Would you ask out Henry Cavill? He seems to look pretty nice if you're into that sort of thing. Is there another celebrity you'd pick instead if you found yourself on a celebrity love triangle dating show?
Angelina Jolie OBVIOUSLY.
What would you do if you had $1000 to spend on yourself?
Good choice!
I'd just put the $1000 in my savings. The thing I'd want most is a bigger emergency fund. It's not yet recovered from the last emergency and I'm concerned.
If I had to spend it, I'd spend it on laser hair removal. But the limiting factor is not money, but fear. The next step is making a phone call. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
If you could get a magical single purpose personal assistant fairy to take over one mundane task for you for life, what would they do?
I'm boring too, it would go in the bank. And without a shadow of a doubt it would be cleaning I fucking hate it.
What would you do if you had a choice between being a wonderful cook or a wonderful artist?
lmao I'm both already!
These single task fairies need more specificity. What specific cleaning task would it do?
Haha I love that! And mopping. I hate mopping intensely, bizarrely strong feels about it.
What would you do if you gave up work?
Become a transbian tradwife tiktok influencer.
What would you do if you had unlimited free time?
Now that's a job title! And honestly I'd hate that I'd be bored and miserable, I like working and a purpose. I'd do voluntary work or something to fill the time.
What would you do if you had the power of invisibility?
Not sure I'd use invisibility much. I'd go invisible enough to stay in practice, be able to disappear to escape danger, or awkward conversations. Most of the utility of invisibility seems to be for nefarious purposes, which I wouldn't do even with the means.
There's a time I would have said I'd be invisible all the time, because I wanted to not be seen at all. Turns out that was dysphoria all along.
You ask such interesting questions. I'd like to know your answer to invisibility. Is there another power that you'd rank higher?
That's an excellent idea! You've given yourself a reliable extra wedge of money each year and you're making it work for you
Pay the least taxes as possible, put whatever I actually get into a ratio of index mutual funds, probably 33% into the American stock market, 33% into a mutual fund indexed on the international market, and then 33% in bonds?
Then, retire and live off the interest generated by the index funds - $1 mil is enough for me to to do that.
What would you do if you became famous?
Cosmetic surgery, move and name change.
What would you do if everyone swapped genders every other year on their birthday?
That's an interesting question! I think the world would learn a lot from it, but it would cause a lot of misery.
What would you do if you were offered a CEO role?
